  • The amendments to the Karnataka Tax on Professions, Trades, Callings, and Employments Act, 1976, bring significant relief to individuals working in Karnataka with monthly gross wages equal to or less than Rs. 24,999. Here are the key points regarding the changes:

    📝 Effective from 1st April 2023, individuals meeting the criteria of monthly gross wages not exceeding Rs. 24,999 will save Rs. 200 per month, amounting to Rs. 2,400 annually.

    📝 Those falling under this income bracket are exempt from paying Profession Tax, providing substantial financial relief.

    📝 Employers are instructed not to deduct Profession Tax from the wages of eligible employees starting from April 2023.

    📝 This amendment signifies a significant benefit for middle-class workers by increasing the threshold limit from Rs. 14,999 to Rs. 24,999.

    📝 The Amendment Gazette, issued on 14th March 2023, outlines additional changes and reliefs introduced under the amended Act.

    These changes aim to ease the financial burden on employees falling within the specified income range and provide a boost to the middle-class workforce in Karnataka.
